- Working across both Secrets Management and Build Artifacts categories, you'll create interfaces that enable AppSec professionals, DevOps engineers, and Developers to work more efficiently, with less friction, and greater impact
- One of your key initiatives will be designing the new GitLab-native Secrets Manager experience!
- Working within a small, nimble team, you'll collaborate directly with researchers and feature teams across various security workflows
- You'll have the opportunity to think outside the box and propose bold solutions that could radically change how users interact with sensitive credentials and configuration data
- Your designs will cater to mid and large enterprise customers, making complex security configurations easy to manage and maintain
- Secrets management is a key product investment area for GitLab, making this an exceptional opportunity to work on a part of the product with significant focus and visibility
- If you're passionate about creating impactful designs in the security space, have experience with enterprise products, and are eager to tackle complex challenges with creativity and expertise, we'd love to have you on board
- Design a holistic approach for Pipeline Security that empowers teams to manage secrets and build artifacts efficiently, with a focus on creating the new GitLab-native Secrets Manager experience

- Undertake usability testing to validate your thinking, with support from our excellent UX Research team
- Contribute to our Design System, alongside the rest of the UX team and the GitLab community as a whole
- Product Designers are highly collaborative roles at GitLab - you're part of the Product Design org, you report into a Product Design Manager, but work to embed yourself into the feature team that you're working on
- You will become an expert in this area, and eventually the broader GitLab product
- Secrets Management: This category is a key product investment area for GitLab
- The team’s current focus is to deliver a GitLab-first functionality that can connect to 3rd party application secrets so that teams can safely deploy software
- This year’s focus is to provide advanced security and compliance within GitLab
- Next to that, we’re working to: Improve the user experience for CI variables settings; Prototype a native secrets manager to better understand how our customers are using secrets to secure workflows; Validate technical and user constraints to the GitLab-native secrets manager experience
- Build Artifacts: This category covers the experiences related to the display of artifact data
- The team plans to release UI functionality allowing the bulk delete of build artifacts through the Artifacts page
Our take
GitLab is an open-source collaboration platform for developers. It enables teams to build code quickly from anywhere without compromising on security or quality. GitLab already has an estimated 30M+ users from all over the world.
According to a 2021 GitLab report, 60% of developers can release code 2x faster with DevOps platforms that bring teams together and accelerate processes. It stands out by catering to programmers of all experiences. Gitlab's version control system helps streamline the process of creating, maintaining, and deploying code, whoever you are.
GitLab was in the right place to capitalize on the recent trend toward rapid digital transformation and remote working. This trend is expected to continue to grow, and with it, GitLab's popularity. With its successful 2021 IPO and the patronage of major brands such as Nasdaq and Jaguar Land Rover, GitLab is expected to solidify its position as the go-to platform for development teams.
